Description
The Light Rail 3.5 IntelliDrive Kit with RoboBar is a cutting-edge light mover system that provides maximum coverage and stability for larger LED grow lights. Manufactured by Gualala Robotics, this kit includes the Light Rail 3.5 IntelliDrive Motor and Rail, paired with the patent-pending RoboBar, which is exclusively engineered to support oversized LED grow lights, including 4'x4' fixtures and other large rectangular grow lights.
With intelligent automation and smooth rail travel, this self-propelled light mover system increases light efficiency, enhances plant growth, and eliminates uneven distribution across indoor gardens. The Light Rail 3.5 Motor operates at 10 RPM, covering 4 feet (1.2 meters) per minute, and features a 0 to 60-second adjustable time delay, allowing for precise light exposure at both ends of the travel range.
This robust and efficient light-moving system ensures that plants receive balanced light coverage, leading to higher yields and healthier growth cycles.
RoboBar – Advanced Structural Support for Large LED Grow Lights
The RoboBar, measuring 40" x 30" (102 cm x 75 cm), is designed to create a triangulated, acute hanging angle, ensuring extra stability and smooth travel along the rail. The four hanging points provide secure support for oversized LED grow lights, accommodating all major brands and dimensions.
Key Benefits of the RoboBar Design:
• Increased Stability – The unique triangulated hanging design eliminates swaying, preventing unwanted movement along the rail.
• Optimized Light Coverage – Larger LEDs can cover 50% more linear area, enhancing efficiency.
• Secure Attachment – Features two Nyloc connectors to attach the motor, preventing detachment securely.
• Vertical Space Saving – Positions the LED light closer to the motor, optimizing space in compact grow setups.
• Enhanced Compatibility—It works with 4' x 4' LED grow lights, oversized rectangular fixtures, and other large LEDs.
How to Set Up the Light Rail 3.5 Kit with RoboBar
To install and hang the RoboBar, align your LED grow light's four hanging points with the RoboBar's four hanging points. If your LED grow light only came with two adjustable rope ratchets or cables, purchase two additional cables to ensure secure four-point suspension.
Those attachments should not be used for setups that initially used metal wire harps (which create only two centered hanging points), as the RoboBar requires four hanging points for stability.
Expanding Coverage with Add A Lamp Kits
For growers who need even more coverage, the Light Rail 3.5 IntelliDrive Kit with RoboBar can be expanded to accommodate up to three grow lights inline using Add A Lamp Kits.
• The Add-A-Lamp Kit allows you to link multiple RoboBars using the provided extender rods and hardware.
• Each 6'6" (2-meter) rail should be gapped by 1-3 feet to ensure even light distribution across the growing area.
• Gap areas will receive plenty of light from both moving grow lights, ensuring full-spectrum exposure without dark spots.
Recommended Travel Distance and Stopper Placement
The recommended Switch Stop-to-Switch Stop distance is 3 to 4 feet for optimal light coverage. This setting allows a single grow light to illuminate up to a 7' to 8' grow space, depending on the fixture's dimensions.
The adjustable time delay setting should be 20-30 seconds to ensure that plants receive even light exposure at each stop before the light continues moving.
Light Rail 3.5 IntelliDrive Motor – Core Features
This kit includes the Light Rail 3.5 IntelliDrive Motor, which transforms standard grow lights into automated lighting systems, eliminating the inefficiencies of stationary lighting.
Key Features of the Light Rail 3.5 IntelliDrive Motor:
• 10 RPM speed, moving grow lights at 4 feet per minute
• 0 to 60-second adjustable delay, optimizing light exposure and yield
• Pre-installed Extreme Duty Trolley Wheels, ensuring smooth operation
• Adjustable travel distance, offering customization for any grow space
• Energy-efficient, consuming only 5 watts
• Works with 110V North American electrical systems (not compatible with 220V setups)
Final Words
The Light Rail 3.5 IntelliDrive Kit with RoboBar is the ultimate solution for growers using large LED grow lights. It offers stability, precision, and expanded coverage. With intelligent automation, smooth motion, and energy efficiency, this system enhances light penetration, eliminates hotspots, and maximizes yield potential.
With a two-year warranty, patent-pending RoboBar technology, and superior engineering from Gualala Robotics, this grow light mover system is an essential investment for professional indoor cultivators and home growers.
